Issue with gearbox and clutch. It has burnt out three clutches in under 12mths. With the last one being on it's way out in under 4 days.
Ford need to have a serious look at the gearing of these vehicles. They are spec'd up to be a commercial vehicle yet you would struggle to carry a bag of cement up a hill.
Perhaps, one should look at the driver or operator of the vehicle, I currently own a BA falcon, Manual, in which is used to tow my 3 axle caravan around Australia, completed it without hassle. as for a bag of cement, try a large caravan full of luggage and boot, with 4 adults in the car ad a full tank of fuel.. I have no issues at 60 thousand ks..
Honestly what did you expect? Name a reliable and well built falcon?
Thought so...
Stop being a sheep and buy a decent Japanese car.
"Stop being a sheep and buy a Japanese car"???
LOL - How does that one work.
Not all of us are into beige Corollas, buddy.
Well ford are a reliable vehicle! there are lots of reliable models that ford had built eg. xp, xy, xc, xd, xe, xf, ed, ef, el, au series 3, I currenly own a 1997 el it is the best! look ,one piece of advise to ford buyers always get the last model before the new models come out!! you will always get a lemon no matter car! a friend purchased a new aurion lotal lemon! I will alway buy ford because of the strong body!! great for towing and a good motor with a good heart, and they are so comfortable!
